Chapter 8: A Clouded Mind

      As sweet and gentle Jungkook's dream went on, he glided his hand along Jimin's gentle face and smiled. His dream seemed so real, he felt his muse just through his fingertips and only now, Jungkook just didn't want to pull away.

     "You're not mine... You'll never be mine. But, if you were with me, I would never own you, I would stand by you and say you have my heart. You don't know how fast I fall for someone, how long I've waited for this feeling... Could I ever keep it?" Jungkook whispered. Just as he pointed Jimin's face onto his, Jimin opened his eyes, yet, he was silent. "I'm so desperate, I already see you differently."

      Jungkook felt Jimin raise his hands up against the alpha's body until they rested over his shoulders. Silence grew loud between them and with that, Jungkook leaned in closer and hugged Jimin's body against his. The gentle and caring embrace felt real to the alpha, he just longed to get lost in it. Even if it was such a dream that seemed so vivid, it felt as if he was truly holding Jimin like he did in the morning.

     The king softly caressed his swan, having a gentle contact with Jimin in his dream, he felt as if his love grew deeper for the omega, only now, he just couldn't dare to hold back any longer.

      "Jimin..." Jungkook's voice echoed back and forth in his dream. Just then, the omega pressed his forehead against the alpha's and arched his body forward against his. "Mh... No.. No, don't do that..." Jungkook whispered within the omega's ear and listened to his childish giggles.

       Jimin then glided his hands from the king's shoulders to his small waist. Jungkook then ran his hands up to hold Jimin's shoulders until he felt Jimin gently kiss along his jawline. Soft and wet kisses aligned on the king's skin as every part to his dream seemed to tempt and allure him even more. Jungkook let out a soft huff before closing his eyes tightly and embracing the passionate sensation.

      "Jimin... Please... mh...ngh~" Jungkook hummed as the omega underneath clung onto him and continued to kiss Jungkook's skin softly. Right there, Jungkook wanted to hold himself off a bit longer, but then he began to feel Jimin's frame rub against his body underneath. With that, Jungkook let out a gentle huff and the atmosphere in the room grew hot. Jimin didn't speak, nor did he whimper at the king's touch. Yet, his body moved in a way that begged for the alpha to touch him. Jungkook felt the omega's honey-like lips trail up against his neck as he pressed his hips against Jimin's in sync. Suddenly, Jimin began to speak into sweet cries that fueled Jungkook's lustful mind.

     "Jungkook.... Ah...ah~" Jimin moaned softly and breathed heavily against Jungkook's skin. "My... My Jungkook~"

     "Oh Jimin.... Ah- wait... How...H-How...do you know my name?" Jungkook asked into a shaky gasp. The alpha then pressed his hips against Jimin's; demanding an answer from the vulnerable omega. As Jimin pressed his head back and let out a gentle mewl, his nails clawed onto Jungkook's back where it tugged onto the king's silk clothes. "Jimin..."

     "Jungkook... wake up..." Jimin whimpered into a soft moan against Jungkook's ear as his breathing grew heavy at the moment. Just then, Jungkook heard another voice call out to him right after.

      "JUNGKOOK, WAKE UP!"

     Finally, the alpha jolted awake from his dream. His eyes blew wide and sweat bolted down his face from the way he passionately held Jimin underneath him in his fantasies. The king then focused his gaze at Yoongi, who was standing right by the bed with his arms crossed.

       "Finally, you're awake," said Yoongi as he leaned forward to get a good look at the king over the bed.

     "I... I-I overslept..." Jungkook whispered and sat up, rubbing his head and feeling his temperature rise. "W-Why are you here? Shouldn't you be at your post?"

     "I was attending my post when I overheard the servants claiming that you were making 'weird noises' in your sleep, you animal."

     "Weird noi-" the young alpha was then cut off abruptly. Just then, he focused below the blanket where he suddenly noticed a huge bump was formed over his crotch. "I-I... I was snoring..." Jungkook continued and tugged his blanket to conceal his boner from the guard.

     "My king, you truly are a card. If that continued any longer, you would have triggered a rut in your sleep! You scared the servants, what has gotten into you?" Yoongi questioned the king directly.

      However, Jungkook couldn't focus, he gazed off as his mind grew clouded once again with the thought of Jimin. He could have sworn Yoongi was giving him another lecture, but the king sat in one spot and thought of Jimin from his dream. Just as Jimin's lewd image flooded the alpha's mind, Yoongi snapped his fingers and caught the king's attention once more.

     "Look at yourself! You're trying to take things slow but your body is lusting after him! How long do you dare to keep this up?" Yoongi hissed with his head tilting right after.

     "Min Yoongi, as my head guard and brotherly figure, I do not need to explain myself to you again. I want to get to know Jimin better, he's my muse. I take as much as I can to know him better until I confess who I am. That is very simple," Jungkook answered and looked off to his painting supplies. "I don't have time to bicker again, I have to see him."

      "And miss out on your morning meal again? Jungkook... Please tell me you will find a time and place for everything. It was fine the first few days, but it seems as if you are being very lazy as a King. Did you forget about your title? You are a King in need of a partner... You do not have all the time in the world, Jungkook."

      "I do as I please, Yoongi. Besides, I only spend my mornings with Jimin, not the whole day."

       "Do you really think you can see him after what just happened?" Yoongi's voice finally struck Jungkook right after like a bullet. "You don't think I know what you are dreaming about? If you see Jimin today, it will only fuel your desperation."

       "You... don't think I know that? I have hope. Please, stop pressuring me about it. That's why I didn't want to approach you yesterday at all. I didn't want to hear the same speech about rushing this."

       "Fine, have it your way," Yoongi concluded and let out a sigh. "But, if you ever need me, I will always be here. I just want you to make the right decisions. You may not need an advisor, but as your guard, I need to make sure you don't hurt yourself."

      Yoongi's words cut like glass when it came to Jungkook coming into contact with it. But, how could the king resist when it came to Jimin? the omega was what inspired him; Jungkook painted Jimin as his swan, how could he just push that all away? Jungkook couldn't, his soul longed for the omega and he just knew he had to wait if he wanted something to truly blossom.

     "Yoongi, you don't understand. What I feel is-"

     "Different? Please... You told me this before when you were just a crowned prince and I was just in training," Yoongi recalled. "Do you remember? How in love you were with that omega? Before Jimin, you wore that disguise and found someone who made your heart beat even harder than ever. At least, that's what you told me."

     "Him..." Jungkook whispered and gripped onto the blanket over his body. "I-I was desperate that's all! I couldn't have loved him..."

     "But, you did. It all seems the same to me. You fall in love so easily and mistake kindness for love, but you have a clouded mind when it comes to them. You get desperate..."

      "Yoongi, that's why I long to hold this off until I know for sure Jimin wants me. I know I am desperate, but it's only because I long to feel passion ever since my first love! Jimin... He's... He's engaged, but I feel that there could be something even more!" Jungkook replied desperately and rubbed his temple on the side of his head. "I-I don't have time for this. I need to see him again. I will wait until the perfect time, I won't rush this and you will not tell me when I should confess."

      Jungkook then looked away and pondered the conversation longer as Yoongi then let out a sigh and walked away. All the guard could do was sit back and watch Jungkook fall in love again, not taking any advice from anyone this time. It wasn't the first time Jungkook found love, of course, he had his first love with someone when he was only a prince, yet that was a conversation Jungkook only longed to cut short out of embarrassment. At the very end, Jungkook searched for love in the wrong places and was left alone with only feeling his own heartbeat.

     Concurrently, Jimin was at Taehyung's house accompanied by his two close friends. The trio conversed over tea as they sat around a low table in the early morning. Jimin had the same glow in his gaze as if his words grew heavy with pure ecstasy at the conversation. Of course, the chat only remained solely on 'Yeong-Hwa'; Jimin's friend by the river. Jungkook always left an impact on Park Jimin, every morning was left on a different note to such a powerful symphony. Yet, this particular symphony held a particular tune Jimin just couldn't ignore.

    "So then... I gave him my favorite brooch," Jimin announced with only the biggest smile in his face that was graced with excitement.

     "Adorable," Taehyung commented and mirrored Jimin's excitement.

      The two omega's gushed over the 'commoner', however, Namjoon was the only one who found this relationship flawed. He believed an engaged omega like Jimin, shouldn't be meeting with another alpha like Jungkook. Especially since he was just a commoner. Namjoon took a long sip of his tea from the porcelain cup and gawked at Jimin with every word he had to say.

     "He showed me how to take down any alpha by their legs and it was such an experience! I practiced a lot and we had so much fun at the river. It was just us alone, it was nice. I never thought I could have so much fun with an alpha, let alone, a commoner," Jimin whispered into a soft tone to his perfect voice and added a little rasp to it as well.

     "Yeong-Hwa would make a lovely husband for an omega. It's surprising that he has yet to find one, I bet they would be the happiest in the world! To think, I expected this friendship to be a temporary thing, but you have a true friend with you, Jimin. Tell me more if there's any," Taehyung added on.

     "Friend..." Jimin thought and let out a sigh right after Taehyung concluded his words. In every waking moment, it almost fled Jimin's mind that he wasn't bound to Jungkook. Yet, he longed to live in a world where he would run away with the commoner and live a long life with him. Jimin was falling for Jungkook's respect for omegas alike and he knew it was wrong for many reasons. Their worlds were different, alas, that was as much as Jimin knew. Little did he know, 'Yeong-Hwa' was a very different person from the start.

     "Are you going to see him today?"

     "Of course I am! I can't imagine breaking a promise." Jimin then let out a giggle before covering his lips with the sleeve to his upper garment.

     Taehyung noticed how happy Jimin truly was when it came to the alpha, Jimin has never felt true euphoria with anyone else other than Jungkook and it was obvious now. The younger omega smiled at the sight of how open and how excited Jimin began to get. The very thought of it left Taehyung also yearning to find love as great as that.

      "What about Hoseok?" Uttered Namjoon into a deep and raspy tone. "Remember him?"

      With the sound of Hoseok's name rubbing off in Jimin's mind, the childish omega closed his eyes and exhaled at the thought of his engagement he so happened to remember. Just then, Namjoon placed his cup down and tilted his head at Taehyung and let out a scoff.

      "Taehyung, why must you feed into this? You know how Jimin gets when it comes to that alpha. You shouldn't excite him any further when you know he has Jung Hoseok," Namjoon declared and noticed how Jimin's smile faded into an angry pout. Like a child, Jimin grew upset over the many things Namjoon told him as if he was a spitting image of the minister. "Jimin... Don't act like that, you know I have a point. You don't spend much time with Hoseok, how do you expect to be happy with him when you're married off? The time you spend with your alpha will surprise you. He could be a very different man compared to the others."

      "I don't want to," Jimin retorted with a pout.

     "Ah, Jimin... You're very difficult," Namjoon replied and sat up over the cushion to adjust his posture. "Listen, I'm not trying to upset you for fun, I only want the best for you and that alpha you met, he won't provide for you as much as Hoseok would! Have you even spent time with him?"

     "I did, his smile bothers me..."

     "You picky little omega, you need to be smart when it comes to marriage. Set a great example for Taehyung! He has yet to marry and if you feed him these rebellious thoughts, he will be hard to marry off to! He will be stubborn and grow all alone."

     Taehyung looked away and kept silent at Namjoon's words. It was true, Jimin's stories were affecting the younger omega and making him have high standards for his future alpha without even knowing it. Jimin heard Namjoon's words and allowed it to pass through his mind like nothing. Jimin has heard this all before, but he didn't want to believe any of it. Deep down in Jimin's world, he desired his own things far from what the world was telling him. It was almost as if Jimin's mind was also clouded as well with only the perfect things in which Jungkook played a big part in.
